Marine Conservation Institute’s 20th Anniversary Celebration!

We were so excited to welcome everyone to our 20th Anniversary Celebration in San Francisco’s gorgeous General’s Residence at Fort Mason. The younger generations representing Heirs To Our Oceans and Racing with Copepods stole people’s hearts throughout the evening and were “over the moon” to learn about the Global Ocean Refuge System initiative designed to catalyze strong protection for at least 30% of the ecosystems in each marine biogeographic region of the world’s oceans by 2030. GLORES is a strategic, science-based way to safeguard marine ecosystems which will help enable humans to recover marine life for us, and future generations. The young attendees spent time talking to Dr. Sylvia Earle, Dr. Lance Morgan and Dr. Elliott Norse about the different ways to save the planet’s oceans.
